iMessage has experienced a worldwide outage, with hundreds of reports that people are unable to send messages.
Over 15,000 iPhone users reported outages of iMessage over the last 24 hours, according to Downdetector.
Apple’s System Status website has reported there was an issue with iMessage between 5:00 pm and 8 pm on Thursday, however it says the issue has since been resolved.
“Some users were affected,” the website said.
“Users were unable to use this service.”
The issue is being reported in America, Australia and elsewhere.
Some messages are being sent as text messages, while others are taking extra time to send.
People have flocked to X – formerly Twitter – to vent about the outage and work out why they can’t send texts.
“Is it just me, or is anyone else’s iMessage not sending messages?,” one person wrote.
“Me running to twitter to see if everyone else’s imessage decided to stop working,” another said.
